New accounts must finish a short profile before the dashboard opens. Until then, most of the site is locked behind a completion step.
Required fields
- Username
- Date of birth
- Phone number
- City and country (with country code)
- At least one interest
What happens while your profile is incomplete
- Dashboard pages redirect you to /complete-profile (your original destination is preserved and re-opened once you finish).
- API actions return a 403 error listing exactly which fields are missing (for example: “Please complete your profile to access the dashboard: phone, interests”).
- Payments and other core actions stay blocked until the profile is complete — finish it before you enroll in a paid course.
How to finish
After signing in you'll see a completion prompt; fill the fields and submit — it takes one go. Admin accounts are exempt. Completing the profile also personalizes courses and recommendations.
